INVENTOR BY JL ATTORNEY S Patented July 29, 1930 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE CHARLES BEICHMAN, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK, ASSIGNOR TO ETERNE MANUFAC- TURING CORPORATION, OF NEWARK, NEW JERSEY, A CORPORATION 0F NEW l JERSEY HAIBFCURLER SACHET application mea April 2c, 1929. semi No. 356,678.

My invention relates to a new and im'- proved hair curler sachet.

One of the objects of my invention is to provide a simple and convenient hair curler sachet which shall include heat insulating material adapted to surround the lock of hair which is being curled. l Another object of my invention is to produce a sachet for the above mentioned purpose which shall be very simple to manufacture' and to use, so that the device can be made and handled with minimum cost.

Other objects of my invention will be set forth in the following description and drawings which illustrate a y preferred embodiment thereof, it being understood that the above general statement of the objects of my invention is intended to generally explain the same and not to limit it in any manner.

Fig. 1 is a front elevation showing the device in the at condition.

Fig. 2 is a sectional view on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1. 1

Fig. 3 is a front elevation showing the device partially rolled up.

In curling'hair, it has been customary to wind a lock of hair spirally upon a rod. The lock of hair was then surrounded with a sheet of moist material impregnated with a suitable chemical. This sheet of moist material is ordinarily called a sachet by the trade. The strand of hair covered with the sachet, which was suitably connected to the curling rod, was then inserted into an outer tube and heat was applied so as to vaporize the moisture in the sachet.

According to my invention, the sachet device consists of an outer sheet of porous cloth 1 having an inner sheet 2 which is impregnated with a suitable chemical. I prefer to use ammonium carbonate. The outer sheet 1 and the impregnated sheet 2 are connected by means of stitches 3. The sheets of cloth l and 2 are connected by means of stitches 4 to a paper envelope 5 having an inner sheet of bendable tinfoil 6. As shown in Fig. 1, the impregnatedv sheet 2 is preferably made of net-like material. The outer sheet 1 is made of any suitable closely-woven material.

` While I prefer to use a sheet of tinfoil 6 which can be readily bent, IA can use"`any l l other suitable material which is stiffer than the thin paper of which the envelope 5 is made.

The device is rolled up around the strand of hair mounted on the curling rod with the paper envelope 5 on the outside, so that the sheet of tinfoil 6 completely surrounds the lock of hair. The cloth part of the device is` moistened ybefore the same is applied to the lock of hair and the ordinary methods of curling or waving hair can be employed.

The advantage of the Aimproved sachet is that the sheet of tinfoil 6 is sufficiently stiff so that when the envelope 5 is bent to the desired form, the sheet of tinfoil 6 maintains the same in said desired form. Likewise the sheet of tinfoil 6 serves to confine the heat and the vapors which arise from the impregnated cloth 2.

I have shown a preferred embodiment of my invention, but it is clear that numerous changes and omissions can be made without departingfrom the spirit of my invention.

Thus, I prefer to impregnate the inner cloth 2 with the ammonium carbonate before the same is vsold to the trade. However, this is not absolutely necessary because the operator could impregnate the cloth part of the device with a solution of any suitable chemical before using the same, although this would not be so convenient.

Likewise, while I prefer to use an impregnated cloth, it might be feasible under certain conditions to merely moisten the cloth part of the device, without impregnating it with any chemical.

. I claim:

1. A hair curler sachet comprising a sheet of material connected to a second sheet composed of bendable material which is suiiiciently stiff 4to maintain its shape when it is bent, said firstsheet being impregnated With ammonium carbonate.

2. A hair curler sachet comprising a sheet of impregnated material stitched to a paper envelope, said envelope having an inner sheet of bendable material which is suiciently stiff to maintain'the shape into which it is bent, said material being impregnated with ammonium carbonate.

connected toan envelope havin a sheet of tinfoil therein, said impregnate cloth being im regnated with ammomum carbonate.
